conver

Motivation

semver is a great implementation of semantic versioning; including all the edge cases. These edge cases are important in many scenarios, but often we are simply comparing two concrete versions (i.e. compare 1.2.3 instead of ^1.2.3).

In this more limited use-case case including all 1000+ lines of semver into your bundle for a web application is a bit of overkill. conver aims to do ONLY concrete version comparisons in a drastically smaller package size (currently 28 LOC excluding comments).

Usage

conver exposes the same comparison methods you would expect from the semver package. Specifically:

gt(v1, v2): returns true if v1 is greater than v2.

lt(v1, v2): returns true if v1 is less than v2.

equal(v1, v2): returns true if v1 is equal to v2.

compare(v1, v2) returns 0 if v1 == v2, or 1 if v1 is greater, or -1 if v2 is greater.

conver.gt('3.4.5','1.2.3');// true

conver.gt('1.2.3','3.4.5');// false

conver.lt('1.2.3','3.4.5');// true

conver.lt('3.4.5','1.2.3');// false

conver.eq('1.2.3','9.8.0');// false

conver.eq('1.2.3','1.2.3');// true

Test

Tests are written with nyc, assume, and mocha. They can be run with npm:
